On the integration of vector-valued functions

We discuss relationships between the McShane, Pettis, Talagrand and Bochner integrals. A large number of different methods of integration of Banach-space-valued functions have been introduced, based on the various possible constructions of the Lebesgue integral. They commonly run fairly closely together when the range space is separable (or has w^*-separable dual) and diverge more or less sharply for general range spaces. The McShane integral as described by [Go] is derived from the `gauge-limit' integral of [McS]. Here we give both positive and negative results concerning it and the other three integrals listed above.
